This award provides travel support to enable selected students in the field of optimization to attend the 2016 Mixed Integer Programming Workshop (MIP 2016), to be held in Coral Gables, Florida, 23-26 May 2016. The MIP workshop is held annually in North America and is designed to encourage participation of junior researchers in integer programming and related areas. A primary focus of this workshop is to showcase young researchers, and to increase the visibility for accomplished students at an early stage in their career, which is especially helpful given the very long refereeing and publication process in mathematical programming. The workshop consists of a single track of 23 invited talks, with about one half of the speakers being junior faculty/postdoctoral fellows, as well as a well-attended student poster session. The workshop also provides an opportunity for graduate students to network with the world's top researchers. A goal of the MIP workshop is to keep the cost of attending as low as possible to encourage participation of underrepresented and minority students, and junior researchers. This award will help accomplish that goal.The award will encourage broader student attendance at MIP 2016. There will be approximately 25 student posters presented at the workshop. The requested funding would provide $500 in travel funding for 10 of these presenters. These travel grants will be awarded through a competitive process and thus receipt of these travel support will be considered an honor by the recipients. Applications will be evaluated by the program committee. Selected students will have the opportunity to attend the conference and present their poster at the MIP workshop's student poster session. The MIP workshop's student poster session is a great way for students to showcase their work to established researchers in integer programming. These sessions are traditionally well attended and serve as a spring board for networking. The interaction between the student poster presenters and established professionals (from both industry and academia) will benefit students' careers. The MIP workshop's poster session encourages students to engage in high quality research methods and to develop effective writing and communication skills. In addition, there is also an award for the best poster presented by a student.

该奖项提供差旅支持，使优化领域的选定学生能够参加 2016 年混合整数规划研讨会 (MIP 2016)，该研讨会将于 2016 年 5 月 23 日至 26 日在佛罗里达州科勒尔盖布尔斯举行。MIP 研讨会每年在北举办美国，旨在鼓励初级研究人员参与整数规划和相关领域。本次研讨会的主要重点是展示年轻的研究人员，并提高有成就的学生在职业生涯早期阶段的知名度，考虑到数学规划领域漫长的审稿和出版过程，这一点特别有帮助。该研讨会由 23 场受邀演讲组成，其中大约一半的演讲者是初级教师/博士后研究员，此外还有一场出席人数众多的学生海报会议。该研讨会还为研究生提供了与世界顶尖研究人员建立联系的机会。 MIP 研讨会的一个目标是尽可能降低参加费用，以鼓励代表性不足和少数族裔学生以及初级研究人员的参与。该奖项将有助于实现这一目标。该奖项将鼓励更多学生参加 MIP 2016。研讨会上将展示大约 25 张学生海报。请求的资金将为其中 10 名演讲者提供 500 美元的差旅费。这些旅行补助金将通过竞争性程序颁发，因此获得这些旅行补助将被接受者视为一种荣誉。申请将由项目委员会进行评估。入选的学生将有机会参加会议并在 MIP 研讨会的学生海报会议上展示他们的海报。 MIP 研讨会的学生海报会议是学生向整数规划领域知名研究人员展示其作品的好方法。这些会议传统上参加人数众多，并且可以作为建立人际网络的跳板。学生海报展示者和知名专业人士（来自工业界和学术界）之间的互动将有利于学生的职业生涯。 MIP 研讨会的海报会议鼓励学生采用高质量的研究方法并培养有效的写作和沟通技巧。此外，还颁发了学生颁发的最佳海报奖。
